Jumbo Home Loans

Jumbo home loans are great when your loan amount is higher than the limits allowed on a conventional home loan ($453,100). They're sometimes called non-conforming home loans since they don’t “conform” to the standard limits and guidelines of a conventional mortgage. 

​

Qualifying for a Jumbo Home Loan

​

   The qualifications for a jumbo loan are similar to other mortgage programs. Your credit scores, income, monthly debt obligations, and other information are reviewed. But jumbo home loans can have additional requirements. For example, an underwriter will want to see that you have more cash reserves in your bank account than would be required on a conventional mortgage.

​

Higher Risk

​

     Mortgage lenders see jumbo loans as more risky than other home loan programs because the loan amount and monthly mortgage payments are higher. Because of that increased risk, the interest rates are slightly higher on jumbo home loans. The down payment requirements are also larger, with typical down payments ranging from 15% to 20% of the purchase price. However, when you work with us you'll have access to our low down payment jumbo home loan!
